BFA Show in Rowe Arts 4/14

The work that was most interesting in style was Nicholas Garris' Those Modern Evangelicals. His style is different in the way he draws, applies his colors and how he works with the texture and composition of his work. Also, his titles for the works are most interesting. There was a work for him that I saw in the last visit in Rowe arts where he drew a man throwing trash in the garbage bin in daylight and the title was "Taking out last night’s sorrow". Who knew that you can also be artistic in the way you title your work. The title also could change the viewer's preconceived thought of the painting. I plainly thought he was throwing trash in the garbage bin. That is what he is realistically doing, but there is a symbolic meaning behind it.
